In 1972 Chucho Valdes released his fourth album, a trio recording with bass and bata drums entitled simply, "Jazz Bata". This ten song exploration of the descarga roots of Cuban jazz was a departure from his first quintet recordings. It showcased not only his virtuosity but forged the path merging the rhythms of the sacred bata with jazz, signaling what was soon to take shape in his history making group, Irakere. Here today, 45years later, Chucho's search to discover new ways to express the classic forms, he will tour the '18/'19 season in a Quartet with bassist Yelsy Heredia and master drummer Dreiser Durruthy Bombalé along with percussionist, Yaroldy Abreu Robles.http://www.imnworld.com/artists/detail/305/Chucho-Valdeshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6EsMztu-_4OCTOBER 19 - NOVEMBER 06
